Designed for Jews who seek a deeper connection to their heritage and for non-Jews wanting a greater understanding of Judaism, this course offers an opportunity to learn about the essential elements of Jewish identity. Through the study of Jewish holidays and life-cycle events, as well as the Holocaust and Israel, we will explore the fundamental beliefs and emotional components of contemporary Jewish life.

The class is taught by Rabbi Avi Schulman and will meet for thirteen sessions. The course will be held on Tuesday night, from 7:00 p.m. - 8:30 p.m., beginning on October 13. There is no fee for the course. Pre-registration is not required.

The course will be held at Temple Beth Torah, 42000 Paseo Padre Parkway in Fremont. For further information contact: tbtad@sbcglobal.net or call (510) 656-7141.
